Some people struggle for years with an inefficient open masonry fireplace, building larger and larger fires and still not getting enough heat from the unit. Other people upgrade to a powerful fireplace insert, and their struggles are over.
The Chimney Guys install wood-burning fireplace inserts throughout the Greater Columbus, Ohio, region for our customers who want to get as much heat, beauty, style and safety out of their fireplaces as possible.
What Is a Wood Fireplace Insert?
Fireplace inserts are pre-built units that fit right into the firebox of a standard masonry fireplace. Like traditional fireplaces, they burn real wood logs and produce real wood flames. Some insert models can be installed into a wall, bypassing the need to have an existing masonry fireplace.
Let’s look at some of the reasons Ohio homeowners choose to upgrade their under-performing masonry fireplaces with new fireplace inserts from Regency and Napoleon, two of the leading names in fireplace design and technology.
More Heat with a Fireplace Insert
A wood insert is a powerful heat producer. Running on a closed combustion system, it retains up to 85% of the heat it produces and makes it available to your room. Compare that with the typical open masonry fireplace that loses as much as 90% of its heat during combustion.
Optional fan blowers let you realize even more of an insert’s heat during the freezing days and nights we experience in the Columbus area.
Eco-Friendly
Regency and Napoleon wood inserts meet all EPA requirements for emissions and efficiency. On top of that, wood is considered a sustainable, carbon-neutral fuel that adds no more pollution to the environment than the same wood in the form of a tree that’s left to decay in the forest.
Safety for Your Columbus Home
Inserts are built from durable steel or cast iron and designed for optimal safety. This heavy insulation not only protects nearby surfaces and objects, it also aids in the unit retaining so much of its heat.
